ADVANCED LIFE SUPPORT (ALS) Provider Course (ERC)
for foreign students
Advanced Life Support (ALS)
The Advanced Life Support (ALS) course is intended for medical professionals who may need to recognise and manage cardiac arrest or severe patient deterioration. Participants learn how to stabilise patients, make rapid clinical decisions and effectively lead or support a resuscitation team during critical events.
The course follows the official European Resuscitation Council (ERC) guidelines and offers a structured, evidence-based approach to advanced resuscitation in adults. It expands on the Immediate Life Support (ILS) course and prepares participants to manage complex emergencies, identify reversible causes of cardiac arrest, and provide post-resuscitation care.
Training is highly practical and consists of skill stations, workshops, demonstrations and simulated scenarios. Significant emphasis is placed on teamwork, communication, and leadership — key competencies when working under pressure.
Upon successful completion, participants receive an ERC ALS Provider Certificate, confirming the ability to lead or support resuscitation both in the hospital and pre-hospital environment.
